meow let's talk about updates.

This is coming soon. I need to pull my facts together and test some things...lots of things.

• mau command line. Show snippet of the man page, and help menu.
• Bugs - hopefully fixed before post https://macadmins.slack.com/archives/mau4/p1473784684000003
• NC - https://macadmins.slack.com/archives/mau4/p1473977972000024
• domain has changed from com.microsoft.autoupdate2.plist to com.microsoft.autoupdate.plist
• HowToCheck can now be Manual, Automatic (default), and AutomaticCheck (IE - MAU 3 behavior)
• Hopefully the log output will go to /Library/Logs/Microsoft/autoupdate.log
• Test profiles. Forced, set-once, often.
• This is to help IT admins but they are not using Apple's CFPref search path standards. Which means deploy your settings to /Lib/Pref/domain with a defaults or use a profile. PERIOD.

Collateral has the potential to be more important with this update. Re-read the official docs http://macadmins.software/docs/MAU_ManifestServer.pdf
